Very nice, I like this kind of stuff (please more of it )

Hi Mr.L,

Thank you for commenting. That's the kind of enthusiasm I was hoping for.

But with the dwindling response, I don't believe I'll make it to 5 much less 50 plus.
• If this thread prematurely ends, send me a PM and I'll provide you a link to a bunch of fun code.

Great stuff JHPJHP, I spent half an hour killing spiders!

Hi normeus,

Thank you for your dedication squishing these nasty critters; let them go too long and they breed out of control.

If you get a chance download the Jump Sprite examples, I heard there might be a bird problem that needs splatting.

Hi All,

There were only a couple appreciative posts last time, but as they say it's not the quantity but the quality.
• Included in the download are a couple smaller examples, but I find it amazing what can be done with so little code.

Download: Matrix and Fountain
• References have been included to give credit where credit is due.

While the following image demonstrates a fairly simple effect, the way it's processed is interesting.
• Characters are drawn across the screen, with each new row a transparency layer is added.
• To give it more of a Matrix look the characters are overlapped.

Very nice! Thank you!

that looks good.

The Matrix effect is great! I never understood the movie, though.

I'm pretty sure we're living in it!

Well observed, you're certainly right there.

Hi mrbungle, idle and BarryG,

Thank you for your comments, they are very much appreciated and the only reason we have three more examples.
• 7 people posted a thank you, well 6, but 1 was helpful; (and you know how much I hate using emojis).
• Over 1400 views with at least a couple hundred forum members downloading each update.

Hi All,

The crazy thing is this effect was created without using transparency.
• Using a black and white rectangular world map, lines are drawn onto a sphere.
• The lines drawn to the back of the sphere are darker than the lines drawn to the front creating a depth effect.
• The background image behind the sphere is merged with the back drawn areas of the sphere to enhance the depth effect.

Kinda reminds me of the Universal Studios logo before a movie.

As someone who has only coded utility applications, I will NEVER understand how you code things like this.

I always look forward to your posts because I know I'm going to see something good. Please don't stop due to a lack of comments.

Hi JHPJHP
I am not a gamer so I think i will never use it
But I like beauty and good work and yours are indeed
Welcome back to PB jungle
Thanks for sharing

Hi BarryG, RASHAD,

Thank you for posting, a couple quality forum members with or without your comments.

Hi All,

The included examples really are Old Skool, using Gosub and Goto.

Download: Ray Tracing
